3-nitro-1,2,4-tri-azol-5-one (NTO) is a high energy insensitive explosive.To study the shock initiation process of NTO-based polymer bonded explosive JEOL-1 (32%octahydro-1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetrazocine (HMX), 32% NTO, 28% Al and 8% binder system), the cylinder test, the gap experiments and numerical simulation were carried out.Firstly, we g
Analysis of codon usage bias in the mitochondrial genome of Pleurozia purpurea
In order to enrich the understanding of the genetic basis of the Me 4th of July Dress genus Pleurozia purpurea, the codon usage bias (CUB) in the mitochondrial genome of Pleurozia purpurea and its main influencing factors were investigated.Firstly, protein-coding sequences were screened based on the complete mitochondrial genome of Pleurozia purpur
Refractive behavior changes with six months daily wear of high and low oxygen permeability hydrogel contact lenses
Introduction: The investigation of myopia and soft contact lenses is not new.Many reports show that the wearing of silicone hydrogel lenses as opposed to conventional disposable hydrogel lenses results in little progression of myopia in the eyes wearing silicone hydrogels.Method: Six subjects wore a silicone hydro-gel lens on one eye while the othe
Identification of Host Factors Involved in Human Cytomegalovirus Replication, Assembly, and Egress Using a Two-Step Small Interfering RNA Screen
ABSTRACT As obligate intracellular parasites, viruses are completely dependent on host factors for replication.Assembly and egress of complex virus particles, such as human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), are likely to require many host factors.Despite this, relatively few have been identified and characterized.This study describes a novel high-throughput,
